We have seen how in conducting efficiency benefit-cost analysis we often use market prices, either directly or indirectly, to value or cost project outputs or inputs. We use market prices directly when they are generated by perfectly competitive markets - markets that are not distorted by monopoly, monopsony, taxes or regulations.

The aim of the research was the processing of the vibration signatures from healthy and damaged composite beams acquired with the help of a Scanning Laser Vibrometer (SLV) upon excitation and analysis of the mode shapes acquired for damage detection. The displacement mode shapes acquired were then converted into curvature mode shapes with the help of a Central Difference Approximation method (CDA).

This study makes explicit assumptions that underpin sound PM practice that forms the required infrastructures for PM practice. It compares best PM practice with PM practice on distressed and troubled projects that takes place within the context of post-disaster relief projects where there is a notable absence of characteristics of required identified PM antecedents. It reviews traditional project management and international aid and development methodologies such as the ‘Logical Framework’, Project Cycle Management and Evaluation and looks at the best in each.

Market failure, inconsistency and fluctuation have been some of the challenges facing small-medium scale farmers (SMFs) in Fiji. Past records show that major government and privately driven marketing projects have failed to achieve long-term sustainability. This thesis takes into account these shortcomings and proposes an alternative framework based on the ideology of clustering, which has been shown to be successful in other countries.

This project is focused on studying the biological effects of low-power RF radiation on the expression and function of mechanosensitive ion channel protein (Piezo-1). To evaluate the effects of long-term exposures, cells were exposed at the frequency of 1800 MHz and power of 17 dBm for a period of 2 and 4 hrs using the transverse electromagnetic (TEM) cell exposure system. To study the effects of short-term RF radiation (10 min), exposures emitted from the mobile phone headset at the frequency of 845 MHz and powers of -15 dBm and -5 dBm were applied to cell cultures.
